Lindsey Graham Rips ‘Birthright Citizenship’

    South Carolina's senior senator — not exactly an immigration hawk — takes on an issue other Republicans duck

    By Brendan Kirby | Tuesday, July 31, 2018

    Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) isn’t known as an immigration hawk, but on Tuesday he took on an issue many other Republican politicians have ducked — so-called birthright citizenship.

    The term refers to the widely understood belief that the 14th Amendment automatically confers citizenship on nearly any baby born on U.S. soil — regardless of whether the parents have a connection to the United States.

Graham, representing as he does the labor lobby, ought to get foursquare behind movements to end not only birthright citizenship but also chain migration, which do not nearly as much to augment the labor situation as they do buttress the welfare state and democrat party, and support an entirely merit based immigration system.

From the Hill:

"Trump's right, our laws are stupid. The idea that 98 percent of unaccompanied minors never leave the country ... if that's not an incentive for parents to send a kid to America, I don't know what would be," Graham added.

Hopefully a 5-4 or 6-3 Supreme Court could settle this correctly, forever.

Alone, that is a great reason to support this President, support American Patriotism, support American Nationalism, support American Exceptionalism, support American sovereignty.

I agree with truth_seeker that we should push this issue into the Supreme Court.

There's no guarantee of success there, even with a conservative Court. But we should at least try.
